It takes principle and courage to enrich the Nazi site for only two and a half years and not a day longer.

I use sponsorblock, it's great, but it only applies to that type of streamer content/ad. And it doesn't have full coverage for that. It doesn't help if your streaming service has unskippable ads. And Google is inching closer to insert ads into the Youtube video stream dynamically which will make them truly unblockable.

With Spotify you can't even mute an ad without it pausing until you unmute.

On cable once they came out with DVRs you could skip the ado. Now there are unskippable ados and it's much worse.

Yes, you can run the web server locally and access it in your browser like any other site. You just wouldn't be able to access it from outside your home network.

Since you want to be able to access these stories as well as store them, you can kill two birds with one stone by creating a Django app with a SQLite backend. The builtin admin site will let you browse and search the content without having to write much code.

Nothing is as good as Reddit/Twitter used to be, but everything is better than Reddit/Twitter are now.

Even for the internet, this is stupid.

I believe I'd always start with my right leg too and it's because I'm right handed, which means everyone probably favors one leg that way so no it's not a problem.

June 2025 is when manifest v2 is supposed to die for good. I think the issue is that it's not really possible for Vivaldi or Microsoft or whoever to keep the code in there long term even if they wanted to.

Isn't every chromium browser going to lose manifest v2 eventually, causing the real ublock origin to stop working?

Don't make a bigger deal out of it than it is. Nothing bad is going to happen.

We should end mail-in voting so if this happens the day before the next election we don't miss out on the benefit.
